NAGGING WIFE
MARITAL THORN
Accomplishes Nothing, but
Leaves a Mighty Recon
ciled Widower
By DOROTHY DIX
There is one passage in the Scrip
tures in which no woman, not even
the most devout, believes. It is the
declaration that we are not heard for
much speaking.
The feminine idea is the exact re
verse of this. Women cherish an
abiding faith in the efficacy of
words, and nothing ever alters their
conviction that the way to work
miracles and move mountains is to
talk enough about them.
Hence the nagger, and the fact
that, so far from regarding nagging
as a crime that ought to be punish
able by solitary confinement in a
dungeon cell, women actually ac
counted unto themselves for right
eousness.
Never do the angelic creatures
feei so sure that they are doing
their full duty, especially to their
husbands, as when they are harping
for ~Wie millionth time upon some
subject that Is as sore as a boil and
that is making their listeners hate
them.
Every women knows the danger
of nagging, and that she nags her
husband at the risk of her mar
ried happiness, and yet the one
who didn't do it who wasn't al
ways Sally on the lecture plat
form. reminding her husband of his
faults would consider herself a
pretty poor, slack sort of a wife.
Why? Xo One Knows
Why women nag no one knows.
Probably they do it because they
Ilk? the excitement it affords. It
gives them some of the fearful joy
\v« all feel In stirring up the man
eating animals at a circus to hear
thtm roar.
Certainly no wife of experience
deludes herself with the belief that
her continuous performance mono
logue has any beneficent effect upon
her husband. On the contrary she
knows that the direct result of for
ever reminding a man of his short
comings is to make him get his
back up and oling to his weak
nesses.
New, nagging is not the innocent
pastime that women seem to think
it. is. It is a crime that is tho run
ning mate with drunkenness and
infidelity, and it shares equally with
them in the divorce prize.
If the majority of men who have
become neglectful of their wives
were asked when love's young
dream first began to rrazzle out
around the edges, and when they
first commenced to dread to go
home instead of yearning to go,
they would say that the time coin
cided to the minute with the hour
in which they first realized that
their wives could not mention a
mistake they had made and let it
go at that, but insisted on rehash
ing the same fault for breakfast,
dinner and supper.
A great part of the glamour of love
and romance lies in the fact that a
man believes himself to be a hero
in a woman's eyes and a wife de
stroys this illusion at her peril. Such
is human vanity that none of us,
not even husbands, enjoy listening
to an account of the things we have
done that we should not have done,
and the things we have left undone
that we should have done.
Our Human Weakness
Still less do we enjoy the so- !
ciety of the individual who points
out our blunders to us, and this is ■
the reason why many a wife who
not only perceives her husband's
faults, but tells him of them, finds
I>.< rself forsaken. He has gone off
aftet some other lady with less
clarity of vision and more discre
tion oi tongue.
No man was ever made any bet
ter or turned from tho error of his
wayn by nagging, but millions of
men are driven from home into
clubs and saloons by the certainty
that the minute they cross their
own thresholds or settle down by
their own firesides their wives will
begin for the billionth time to
thresh over some old grievance.
A wise woman never tells her
htiFband of his faults at all. but the
unwise woman, who lacks the self
control to maintain complete silence,
;sheuld, at least, have enough com-
I mon sense to mention a weakness
I but once. Let such a woman stand
i up and have a fight to the finish, and
then let the matter rest without
forever plaguing him by harping
upon the same unpleasant theme.
So shall her husband rise up and
call her blessed, for there is nothing
that a man will not do for the wife
who can let bygones be bygones
and grant him the right to have a
few pet faults without forever try
ing to reform him.
The pathetic thing about nagging
is its utter uselessness. A woman
jeopardizes her husband's love, she
makes him perfectly miserable, and
all for nothing. In proof of this
regard the experience of the women
you see all about you who have
fussed for forty odd years about
, their husbands' smoking or musri
ing the sofa cushions or tracking
mud into the house, without ever
being able to cut out a single pipe
or drink or teach a man to wipe his
feet on the doormat.
The naeTine' wife accomplishes
nothing. /**-t she leaves a mighty
reconciled ■widower behind her when
ehc die*.

PLAYS AND PLAYERS
Ann Pennington, wlio is soon to make
lier motion picture debut with the Fa
mous Players on the Paramount Pro
gram, was right in her element the
other day when a huge "theater" set
ting was erected in the studio for her.
"Susie Snowflake," her first picture, Is
to be a musical comedy story, and
some of the scenes will show her per
forming on the stage, with orchestra
playing and audience applauding. Of
course, this audience is paid for ap
plauding, but, as one of them remark
ed after the performance, 'lt's a shame
to take the money. We ought to have
paid admission."
A number of cameras were put out
of commission with expensive lenses
cracked by intense heat in the taking
of the steel furnace scenes for "The
Light at Dusk," the story of Anthony
P. Kelly which the Lubin Company is
turning into a photoplay feature.
The recent engagement by the Lubin
Company of Garda Polotskova for
"Love's Toll." and of Hedda Kuszew
ski for "The Light at Dusk," is said to
have prompted resolutions of protest
from the society for the protection of
compositors and proofreaders.
LOCAL THEATERS
The fireworks exhibition at Paxtang
Park this evening, it is said, will be
one of the best pyrotech-
Flreworks nical displays the park
nt PnxtanK management has ever
put on. An entire change
of program for to-night's display is
guaranteed. As a special attraction a
monster set-piece will be shown that
is promised to be one of the most
unique pieces of fireworks that pyro
technical art has produced. This
piece throws a light so brillant that it
is possible to take pictures of the
crowd and the other fireworks while it
is burning. A photographer has been
cngaed by Manager Davis to be on hand
and try the experiment this evening.
At the park theater this week there is
a vaudeville show headlined by the
Four Pallettes, who paint scenes in an
almost incredible short space of time.
This act is a real novelty in the way of
vaudeville stunts. The balance of the
show is made up of four acts.
The third chapter of "Gloria's Ro
mance," featuring Billie Burke, will be
shown at the Re
"Glorla's Romance" gent to-day and
at the Regent to-morrow.
Gloria finds her
self In love with Richard Freneau,
after she thinks she has been rescued
from a band of Seminole Indians in the
Florida Everglades by him. In reality
Dr. Rovce saved Gloria, and Is In love
with her. When her father tries to
pay Freneau oft with a check for a
large sum, the young broker declares
it is Gloria he wants. To prevent the
affair going farther, Gloria is sent
away, it being understood that she Is
not to see or communicate with Freneau
for five years, and if they still love one
another, they may marry. But at the
end of Ave years, when she returns
iiome, she is amazed to find her idoi
does not recognize her, having com
pletely forgotten her.
In addition to "Gloria's Romance,"
Denman Thompson's "Old Homestead,"
a Paramount Picture, will be shown to
day.
To-morrow —Crane Wilbur will be
presented in "Vengeance Is Mine."
Bessie Barrlscale and William Des
mond will be at the Colonial Theater
to-day and to-morrow in a
"Sorrow* new drama in five acts from
